Chained up: Taylor Momsen poses for a fashion shoot to launch the Material Girl brand in Manhattan yesterday


It must have been a little nerve racking being directed in a fashion shoot by the Queen of Pop.

But for Gossip Girl Taylor Momsen, the new face of Madonna and her daughter Lourdes’ Material Girl clothing line, it all seemed a bit of a breeze.

And in typical fashion, Madonna took charge of the Manhattan shoot, taking photos herself and directing Taylor on how to pose for the snaps.

‘Madonna totally came in and intervened and re-did everything and positioned everything and put it into her own vibe,’ Taylor told Access Hollywood.

‘I think we [have] a very good working relationship. I think it went well.’

The17-year-old looked sultry as she posed in a series of trendy outfits which included a black cropped jacket, teamed with skinny black pedal pushers and black platform heels.

She was also seen clad in floral shorts, grey cardigan and short black boots.

Madonna's 13-year-old daughter Lourdes, nicknamed Lola, was also on hand to help out.

'Lola was here all day and she helped style the shoot and I worked with her to put the outfits together. She’s a sweetheart,’ said Taylor, who plays Jenny Humphrey on the U.S. TV series.

Madonna, who was dressed all in black, was taking a break from directing her first feature film W.E. about the life of Wallis Simpson which has begun shooting in London.

‘I’m psyched to be the face of Material Girl,’ said Taylor, who is currently taking a break from Gossip Girl to tour with her band The Pretty Reckless.

‘It’s awesome. For one, it’s Madonna so it’s gonna be cool and it’s really an awesome experience so far.

'She’s very down to earth for all her success so it was good to see that.’

Taylor also called Madonna a 'cool mom' after working with her on the shoot.

'I was ecstatic to be asked. It’s such an honour,' Taylor told Women's Wear Daily.

'It’s Madonna. I was kind of shocked. She’s amazing. She was very down to earth.

'It was nice to see after all her success, she’s still very grounded.

'She definitely has a vision and was very hands-on. It was really easy working with her.

'She’s very comfortable to be around — very professional but a lot of fun.'

Taylor revealed her favourite pieces from the collection, which is aimed at young girls, are ‘all the bandeaus.’

The Material Girl brand will debut next month at Macy’s in New York.

It will then be available in Macy’s stores across the U.S.

The collection consists of clothes, footwear, handbags, jewellery and accessories.
